The Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 (CPC) is the foundational procedural law governing the institution, conduct, and adjudication of civil suits in India. This 2026 updated edition, published by Law & Justice Publishing Co., presents the Bare Act with comments, fully incorporating the latest statutory amendments and judicial developments affecting civil litigation.
This edition is updated in line with the Mediation Act, 2023 (Act 32 of 2023), which has introduced significant procedural changes promoting pre-litigation mediation and alternative dispute resolution in civil matters. It also reflects amendments arising from the Commercial Courts Act, 2015 (Act 4 of 2016), as amended by Act 28 of 2018 (w.e.f. 3-5-2018), ensuring accurate application of CPC provisions in commercial disputes and commercial divisions of courts.
To enhance practical usability, the book is supplemented with Supreme Court guidelines and landmark judgments that clarify procedural complexities and evolving interpretations of civil procedure. Additional features such as quick-view law charts, important tips, legal maxims, and legally defined words and phrases make this edition an indispensable tool for both learning and practice.
This edition is especially useful for advocates, judges, law students, judicial service aspirants, academicians, and corporate litigators, offering a clear, authoritative, and up-to-date reference for everyday civil court practice.
